I started my grandson with a Crickett at 4 y.o. He loved it, they aren't to small for younger kids. He used it till he was 10 y.o. I have two of them on S&S but I don't want to jump through the hoops...

Yes. The Lee bullet sizer is designed to seat gas checks as it sizes the bullet. I use the Lee sizer to seat my gas checks without a problem. I have used them for Hornady, Sages and Gator gas checks.

The Lee manual lists a cast 375 grain pill, but it only lists Ramshot Enforcer for powder. I concur with Tj, interpolate using data for the listed bullets. I've done it with other data myself with...

I intentionally loaded some PC'd dummy rounds without sizing them to do a drop test. Sum up my results just by saying, size after powder coating. Each one got stuck to some extent and it wasn't fun....

I don't know about personal demons as such, but I do believe we all have our weak points. I am sure I do, and I have to fight the good fight or give in. There are times I give in and times I don't. I...

+1! If you haven't done it yet you need to, get a good reloading manual and read the instructional section in the front, then re-read it. If you have then re-read it now. I have 5 metallic cartridge...

I have stripper clips for my 7.62X39 and 7.62X54R ammo, but I believe they are steel not brass. Either way they don't appear to need cleaning. But thanks for ther heads up.

I'm not a hot weather person. If I decide to cast in the cold it would be from 20 degrees down to the single digits, and some winters it's negative numbers. I don't mind that at all, I cast outside...

Happy Veterans Day to you all. Thank you for all of the sacrifices and may God bless each of you.
